Summary

Cities of Tomorrow is a critical history of planning in theory and practice in the twentieth century, as well as of the social and economic problems and opportunities that gave rise to it.


  • A critical history of planning in theory and practice in the twentieth century, as well as of the social and economic problems and opportunities that gave rise to it.
  • Trenchant, perceptive, global in coverage, this book is an unrivalled account of its crucial subject.
  • Comprehensively revised to take account of abundant new literature published since its original appearance, and to view the 1990s in historical perspective.
  • Reviews the development of the modern planning movement over the entire span of the twentieth century.

Good read and study of planning history!

Rating: Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

My university is using this book as a text as part of our study of Planning History. It is a very good read and is unlike a textbook. Outlines planning history from 1880 to 1980.
